Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

BGIS Global Integrated Solutions Ltd is procuring the refurbishment and replacement of an existing passenger lift at a high-security diplomatic mission in London. The requirement covers complete removal and replacement of the lift car and shaft equipment, integration with existing lift controls and life-safety systems, and improvements to mechanical ventilation for smoke control. The appointed contractor will provide design, supply, installation, enabling works, builders’ work in connection, testing, commissioning and certification. The installation must integrate with the building management system and fire alarm interlocks while minimising disruption and aesthetic impact in a listed building. This is a specialist lift engineering and building services project, classified under elevators, mechanical lifts, lift parts and related equipment.

The procurement has reached tender: the buyer invited offers through an open procedure below the threshold, with electronic responses accepted. The deadline for submissions was 15 October 2026 at 12:00. The contract period is 12 November 2026 to 24 June 2027. Its stated value is £200,000. Delivery is required in London. The work must comply with BS EN 81-72:2020, BS 9999, relevant Building Regulations and Approved Document B, together with the required safety, accessibility and performance standards. Bidders will need to address the complete delivery package, including coordination with heritage, building services and security stakeholders, integration with existing infrastructure, life-safety interfaces, smoke-control measures, testing, commissioning and certification.

This opportunity suits an established lift contractor or specialist building services firm able to deliver a full design-and-build replacement rather than a simple equipment supply. Relevant capability includes lift removal and installation, shaft equipment, lift controls, building management system integration, fire alarm interlocks, mechanical ventilation and smoke-control interfaces. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate competent testing, commissioning and certification against the stated lift, fire-safety, accessibility and building standards. The work also requires strong project management in a live operational environment, with robust security procedures, careful logistics and minimal disruption. Experience of high-security or diplomatic premises, listed buildings, heritage coordination and sensitive integration with existing services would be particularly relevant. The requirement is substantial enough to need coordinated multi-discipline delivery capacity.
